Abstract
In some implementations, an apparatus may comprise a collet sleeve configured for insertion into a cavity of a mule shoe and including teeth configured to ratchet with pawls of the mule shoe. The apparatus also may comprise a packing element surrounding a portion of the collet sleeve and configured to radially expand to form a seal with a casing of a wellbore in response to a setting force to join the teeth and the pawls.
